She has been lovingly maintained with the current owners investing over $200,000 USD. There are redundant systems throughout and lots of spare parts. Estella is ready to take her new owners anywhere in the world.
The center cockpit design allows an aft owner's stateroom that is fit for proper accommodations featuring a huge, comfortable berth (fitted with lee cloths) and lots of headroom. There is a hanging locker, small counter area, and multiple storage bins, lockers and drawers. Adjacent to the aft stateroom, to starboard, is a fully enclosed, double access head with separate shower stall.
The galley is located to port with the double SS sinks located along the centerline. The center island below the companionway allows for excellent engine access.
Forward of the aft head is the nav station, which has ample area for storage of charts, books, navigation tools and electronics as well as a hanging locker.
The main salon has a port side L-shaped settee and straight settee to starboard. There is excellent storage outboard of the P&S settees in enclosed lockers and various areas of open and closed storage above the seat backs. The starboard settee pulls out to convert to a pilot berth (with lee cloth). Forward of the salon to port is the forward head which has access from both the main salon and the forward stateroom. Opposite is a wine locker and counter area with an additional large locker below.
The forward stateroom has a large and comfortable V-berth (fitted with lee cloths) just right for your guests or children. There is a hanging locker, two storage drawers and two additional storage lockers. (sail storage is accommodated in a separate area below the V-berth)
The interior is finished in varnished teak and offers a warm, traditional but bright feeling. There are plenty of opening ports and deck hatches to provide exceptional ventilation. The cabin sole is varnished, solid teak and holly. The galley and heads are finished in off white Formica with varnished teak trim for easy maintenance.
There is ample storage throughout the interior of the vessel as well as an oversized lazarette on the aft deck and a dedicated vented propane locker that can accommodate (2) 20-lb tanks.
Estella's cockpit features full sail control, great visibility, two separate autopilots and instrumentation sets, a retractable dining table, and a full enclosure for those days when the weather is less than desirable - whether at sea, \or snuggled up with a book in port.
On deck there are ample handholds and jacklines for safety, SS davits for hoisting your RIB and a good size aft deck for fishing or grilling.
Large Interior Volume with all the Cruising Comforts & Privacy.
